The combustion of propane may be described by the chemical equation C 3 H 8 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 3 CO 2 ( g ) + 4 H 2 O ( g ) C

3H8(g)+5O2(g)⟶3CO2(g)+4H2O(g) How many grams of O 2 ( g ) O2(g) are needed to completely burn 17.9 g C 3 H 8 ( g ) ?

Answer:

65.1g of O2 will be needed

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

C3H8 + 5O2 —>3CO2 + 4H2O

Molar Mass of C3H8 = (3x12) + (8x1) = 36 + 8 = 44g/mol

Molar Mass of O2 = (16x2) = 32g/mol

Mass conc. of O2 from the balanced equation = 5 x 32 = 160g

From the above calculations, we can easily find the mass of O2 needed to completely burn 17.9 g C3H8. This can be done by the following:

From the equation,

44g of C3H8 was completely burnt by 160g of O2.

Therefore,

17.9g of C3H8 will be burnt by Xg of O2. i.e

Xg of O2 = (17.9x160) / 44 = 65.1g

B. Why is this number called a "mass” number?
deff fn [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

The mass of the atom depends on the sub atomic particles present in the nucleus of an atom.

That is, the protons and the neutrons.

Electrons are present around the nucleus and the mass is negligible since its mass is very very less.

<em>mass of a proton = 1.673\times10^{-27} kg</em>

<em>mass of a neutron = 1.675 \times 10^{-27} kg</em>

<em>mass of an electron = 9.109 \times 10^{-31} kg</em>

Mass number represents the mass of one particular isotope and it is a whole number for example, _6 C^{13}

Mass number is 13 and atomic number is 6 for the carbon isotope C-13.  

Atomic mass is different from mass number and it is a fraction since it is the average atomic mass of all the isotopes of an atom.

Atomic mass of C is 12.011 amu which we see in the periodic table is the average atomic mass of isotopes C-12, C-13 and C-14.

The combined gas law states that
seropon [69]

Answer:

Option B. PV = nRT.

Explanation:

From the above,

C = PV / T. (1)

But, C is directly proportional to n, where R is the gas constant i.e

C & n

C = nR

Substituting the value of C into equation (1), we have:

C = PV / T

nR = PV / T

Cross multiply to express in linear form

nRT = PV

Therefore,

PV = nRT

What causes the lines in the spectrum for elements? a continuous release of energy from the heated element a quantum absorption
solmaris [256]

Answer:a quantum absorption of energy

Explanation:

Bohr’s model explains the spectral lines .While the electron of the atom remains in the ground state, its energy is unchanged. When the atom absorbs one or more quanta of energy, the electron moves from the ground state orbit to an excited state and when the atom relaxes back to a lower energy state, it releases energy that is again equal to the difference in energy of the two orbits.
